1. In my distress I called to the Lord,and he answered me.
2. Deliver me, O Lord,from lying lips,from a deceitful tongue.
3. What shall be given to you, and what more shall be done to you,you deceitful tongue?
4. A warrior’s sharp arrows,with glowing coals of the broom tree!
5. Woe to me, that I sojourn in Meshech,that I dwell among the tents of Kedar!
6. Too long have I had my dwellingamong those who hate peace.
7. I am for peace,but when I speak, they are for war!
